         Topic: EFL Race - NW Creeking Comp     Posted: 26 Feb 2010 at 4:36pm | 
 
 
  
   
   
   Here is an update on the race.  The permits are pulled for the EFL and Sunset Falls Park for the weekend of April 10&11.  The Race will begin above Sunset Falls and the finishline/ takeout is still TBD.  The main event site with registration/ vendors/ food is at Sunset Falls Park.  The Afterparty is in the park also (Thanks Next Adventure!!).  We are discussing camping options and will keep you updated (hoping to have unlimited camping in the park - but that is not yet secured).  Below is the link to the site for more info.
   
As always, the coordinators could use extra help, so shoot an email if you can assist in any way.

   Does "the permits are pulled" mean what it sounds like it means? Isn't that a problem?

   Tony - what is the status?  Everything moving forward as planned?  What's the camping status?  (Are we all crashing at your house?   ) Also, who is going?  Two people have bailed on me, so I may have room in my truck.

   Looking for people for the carpool, particularly folks interested in taking advantage of the gravel pit next to the river after boating...

   Oh, OK... I'm headed down, but it won't work to carpool as I have to head in to Portland for a concert that night. It would be fun to have some of the PP crew to do a run with though.

   For those wondering about Friday night camping at Sunset falls;  the park has not been rented, so you will need to pay on your own, but they are being cool about more then 1 tent, etc per site, within reason.  Just pay for the site so you don't  "F" it up for the future!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

   Who's doing an EFL run on Sunday? I would love to get on there, I'm assuming people are but haven't seen anyone talking about it specifically - probably missing the obvious, I realize. ;)

     It's all fun and games until someone loses a paddle.

     I will be down there this weekend, but not boating. 
 I am sure there will be plenty of people around doing runs on Sunday. 
   Come on down, it is supposed to be a nice weekend, and flows look good.
 
    
   
   | 
 
 
  | 
   
     
     Sure?
